The Language of Work

Do you work with students or young adults who go out to a worksite or supported vocational experience? Learn about the common communication requirements of work in general and explore the process of determining specific language of a variety of job sites. See examples of how you can use what you learn to make picture supports, device pages, and scripts to support students at work. Use these concepts in role-plays and in real life on the job scenarios. Help your students to be prepared for talking to co-workers, supervisors and other work-site staff.
